Generation Diva
 

What do you all think about this article: Are We Turning Our Tweens Into 'Generation Diva'? | Newsweek The Diva Generation | Newsweek.com

Do you think the children of today need some serious guidelines on how to be actually "kids"? Do you think posting pictures like this on blogs and websites is exposing children to pediophiles and making it okay to perve?

This leads me to another question, what do people think society in years to come will be like if children are already pretending to be young adults and whoring themselves out naively?

Definitely, I think it would be hard to deny that media exposure and society at large are sexualising young girls earlier and earlier. It's a totally unnerving trend, and quite sad as well. These girls' childhoods are being twisted by some clever marketers, just to drive a new generation of shallow consumption.

I'm not sure what it will come to beyond that, it's basically like a more extreme version of the dress ups we all used to play at, a fascination with the adult world. As you come into maturity you grow out of that phase, because it loses its allure when you have it. But the buying habits will live on.

I would rather have pervs beating off to pictures of the child than praying on the child itself.

Yeah, I wouldn't let a priest near my kids either.

I heard about that kinda stuff. Thats sad is'nt it. You can't even trust a preist. The world today. phewww

Thats just miserable parenting.

agreed. it seems like a lot of developmental problems could be avoided if parents stopped treating their kids like show dogs.

....someone has to make the child porn for them to jerk off to. You could argue that there's an even bigger market with the internet, and so more children are lured in to making the porn. It's a bum argument regardless. All the internet porn hasn't stopped regular screwing, so I doubt it's stopped pedophiles.

i would beat the PISS out of my child if i saw them dressed like that

What? All of their parts are covered. I see nothing wrong with this.

Did your parents dress you that way Unfan?

my mother still threatens to beat the hell outa me when i dress like that,.....

Boys play war, girls play tea time. That's how it used to be. Now boys play pimp and girls play whore.

It's just social evolution.

Yes but my mom also always made sure I wore nice matching shoes. What are those pink slipper looking things the one on the right is wearing? Those look very unflattering and unladylike.

Clothes are the mark of the Bourgeois and an unnecessary evil.

:laughing:

*high fives*

It really is down to the parents though, if they can't keep them from leaving the house in skimpy clothes because they're to self pre-occupied, then they shouldn't be parents in the first place. People say that parents often both have to work fulltime, but that doesn't mean you can get away with having your children dressed up as minuture Paris Hiltons.

Here's the video where the photos came from, it gets worse:

Head asplode. I don't know what I just watched. I'm torn between finding it kind of cute that they have a weird sense of tweeny-celebrityism and being weirded out that everyone else just runs with it.

She had her legs open for way too long.

dooly notd.

Yeah that generation Diva thing is ridiculous. It's basically lack of parenting and there are numerous parents that aren't completely off the wall and know how to raise their guides in a manner that wouldn't allow that to happen.

I don't think it will get worse in the years to come. History shows that things go around in a cyclical motion so in the future they will probably become more conservative like in the 50s.

i watched 20 seconds of that and had to close it immediately.

How is having a bunch of miniature conservatives better than this "generation diva" thing? At least these kids aren't future Rush Limbaughs.

not that kind of conservative you ****ing dope.

Rush Limbaugh is anti-nudist colonies too.
